023: Smoothies, Juices, Elixirs & Everything In Between

Besides clean water, smoothies, juices and elixirs are a few of our staple beverages. But, there are so many other healthy drinks we include in our daily routines. On today's show we go deep and get into the nitty gritty of what liquids we consume, when we consume them and how they contribute to our health (and now yours).

Often people are able to wrap their heads around the importance of consuming fresh, organic whole foods to thrive but when it comes to healthy drinks, they fail to make the same connection.

As adults, the majority of us is water (around 60%) and in children even more so. It only makes sense we rehydrate with the best liquids available.

We are excited to share the drinks we consume on a regular basis. We have drinks to get going first thing in the morning, drinks to rest & relax us before bed and everything in between.

So pour yourself a glass of your favourite herbal tea, sit back and enjoy the show.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The importance of consuming high quality water throughout the day
• Yes, you can drink too much water (hyponatremia)
• Our cold morning elixir recipe
• The #1 tool we recommend to someone just getting into the health world
• A fresh coconut - the ultimate starting point for your smoothie
• The difference between smoothies and juices
• What juicer is best for you?
• How to make fresh juice using a high speed blender
• What to look for when buying fresh juice
• How to make the perfect mug of tea
• What to look for in a kettle
• Our favourite fermented beverages - kombucha, jun and water keifer
• Marni's epic hot elixir recipe
• Brazil nuts are an amazing source of selenium
• Ceylon cinnamon... the real cinnamon
• Where you can buy quality herbs online
• Drink ideas for calming your body before bed
• A contest where you can win one of Marni's signed books - Plant-Based Diet For Dummies
